EN 16
USE
Placing cutlery and crockery in the dishwasher
• Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, you must:
▷ Remove any large bits of leftover food.
▷ Leave caked and burnt on leftover food to soak for a while.
When inserting the dishes, take care to ensure that:
• The spray arm is not obstructed by the dishes.
• Hollow objects are placed with the opening facing downwards, to ensure that
that cannot hold the water.
• Plates and cutlery must not cover each other.
• Glassware items must not touch, otherwise damage can occur.
• Place large objects that are difficult to clean in the lower basket.
• The upper basket is specially designed for lighter objects, such as glasses
and coffee and tea cups.
Warning!
• Long knives standing upright in the cutlery basket can cause injury!
• Long and/or sharp items of cutlery, such as carving knives, should be laid (placed
horizontally) in the upper basket.
Damage to glassware and other crockery
Potential causes:
• Type of glass or manufacturing process. Chemical composition of the dishwasher
detergent.
• Water temperature and duration of the wash cycle.
Proposed solution:
• Use glassware and porcelain crockery produced by manufacturers that state that it is
suitable for dishwashers.
• Use a milder/less corrosive dishwasher detergent. If needed, ask detergent manufacturers
for more information.
• Select a wash cycle with a lower temperature.
• Remove glassware and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as possible after the cycle has
finished, to prevent damage.
